Bitch I’m not talking about him *now*. Ok, starting now. Now.

Whatever your response here… y’all don’t use do not disturb?

Harry Kane and England better light a candle for Lindsay Graham, homie apparently stepped up and took the hit for ‘em.

Odds on Trump dropping an f-bomb talking about Lindsay Graham? Where’s my Kalshi at?

If there’s a silver lining for Graham (there isn’t) it’s that he won’t have to see how The Big Dingbat “memorializes” him, the final insult will at least be unknown to him.

Social networks reflect humanity (with some caveats, as digitalization already creates some meaningful shifts in social relationships). Algorithmic social media - ie, Meta - radicalizes humanity.

… The reasons *why* the median white voter supports Trump and his politics are *absolutely* linked to the rise of algorithmic social media, with Facebook 2016 being the canary in the coal mine.

Why tf do the Belgians have a guy lying down behind the wall?

... How?

No lies detected, but not in a good way.

Went to Triple AAA back in the day and got a whole TripTik printed out, Florida to Connecticut, for free (I think?? Or cheap enough that I didn’t notice), followed it all the way, flipping the pages as we went. Was this in the ancient 1980s? Not at all. 2004. Reader, it was 2004.

It’s Always 2 Dumb Bitches Telling Each Other "Exactlyyyyy"

I've got two: the hand grabbing the thigh that Bernini did on the Rape of Proserpina (at the Borghese Gallery in Rome, worth the trip just for that)

Oct ‘24, eh? Anybody checked in on these folx lately?

In an age of labor upheaval, good to know that traditional jobs like “mobile bootleg salesperson” are making a comeback.

They don't. We can do things differently.

Just built something that I think is kind of cool. If you've ever wanted an easier way to create a shared photo album with friends after a weekend together, a wedding, whatever, check it out: albums.sunslider.social/en/collabora...

I'll give him one thing, takes some real cojones to stand up there looking like that and say anything, let alone a bunch of blubbering nonsense.

The difference is between politicians who think mostly about how to keep their job and politicians who think about how to lead.

Shameless plug: on @sunslider.bsky.social it’s much easier! Find it directly in your settings :)

Cars in cities is a series of political choices, getting them out is too.

No, I didn’t turn it off, I saw it. But I thought about it real hard. Still, fair is fair, it’s clear that I only control Haaland.

I’m getting yawny, don’t make me do this again.

We’ve eliminated boredom and in so doing sacrificed connection. Probably a bad deal, but what do I know 🤷

Weird, French announcers say nothing when Emmitt Smith’s face pops up? Rude.

bumping this for the east coast, marvel at me, I control Braut Haaland with my *mind*

Oh don't you go bringing reality into our Northern European utopias here fella

I can’t believe this actually worked

I’m going to do everyone a favor and go to bed so that one of these jokers can actually put the ball into the net. (Mark it, 78:00)

Happy Independence Day, from the god Jack Handey.

I know I already got the real soccer fans all pissy on this site last week, but whatever: PK shootouts are the greatest way to end a game, best 5 minutes of drama in all of sports.

I like this framing and am going to think on it. Thanks for putting it out into the world.

A penintent Cricket spends the entire season getting refrocked only to inadvertently get the boot alongside them.

I would broaden this out a bit. The structure of the information environment these days basically means that *everyone* lives in their own algorithmically reinforced bubble. Whatever countervailing forces there were have been all but wiped out. It's bubbles all the way down.

Good evidence that the US govt still has some Dem sleeper cells keeping things running at some level 🙏🙏

I don’t think this is true: the algorithm, in reinforcing our bad choices and crowding out any good choices, is like if we let supermarkets stock only candy. It tips the scales in ways that are, yes, using human nature, but that ignore all we’ve done as a society to try to better that nature.

The Sugar Bowl was in two days. Then Texas learned it had a player who was 30 years old. He had already played professional football and had been competing all season under a fake name. Free story: www.nytimes.com/athletic/740...

This feels like a pro-mayo story to me? A wonderful base for all kinds of flavors.

It’s going home?
